Transferring from a Home phone

You can transfer a call from a phone connected in parallel to one of the incoming TalkSwitch lines (for example, your home phone if you have a home-based business) to a Local or Remote Extension, Extension Ring Group, an Announcement, or a Voicemail box. This section allows you to choose which transfer prefix you would like to use to perform the action. The transfer prefix ‘wakes up’ TalkSwitch and is considered the equivalent of the Recall or Link action at a Local Extension. The default prefix is * * .

Example: You receive a call on a phone in your home that is not a TalkSwitch extension and you want to transfer the caller to Remote Extension 215. You dial * * , wait for the ‘double beep’, dial 215 and hang up. TalkSwitch now handles the call. For more details, see section 2.3.7.2.

Transfer and clear

TalkSwitch has the ability to clear lines after a call has been transferred. Ensure you have this service/feature activated on your line(s). Check under System Information -> Telephone Lines.

Remote Transfer

Calls that are transferred to a Remote or VoIP Extension, can be transferred back to another extension or voice mailbox. Dialing * * to place the caller on hold, then enter the extension or mailbox number. If this is set to

allow screening calls, dial 4 to complete the transfer. If you want

to cancel the transfer, dial 5. If you have selected ‘Perform a blind transfer’, the call is automatically transferred and the line is released once the extension or mailbox number has been entered.

When a call is transferred from a Remote Extension to another Remote Extension or VoIP Extension, it is always a blind transfer so that three lines are not tied-up for the transfer.

Note: This feature can only be used when forwarding a call to a Remote Extension or a VoIP location over 2 lines. It cannot be used with 3-Way Calling or Centrex Transfer services.

2.3.7.3Miscellaneous

All of the following options affect TalkSwitch as a system. Adjust them according to your needs.
